Based on the story I would still go through with the divorce. If she misled me then she lied to me. She intended to bed another man. The intention alone would trigger the divorce.
Mid 70's. I gave my 1st wife a simple choice. Only because of our children with the youngest being just out of diapers. She suggested having us both. That wasn't a choice. I threw her out. And less than 2 weeks later I simply replaced her. Simple. As far as this story there is no way I would be this easy to get along with in this situation. My wife stays by my side or divorce. Very simple. As far as the whore goes. In the story he lets the whore get too close and allows her to distract him. I couldn't care less whether he is the boss or not. I once threw my wife's boss to the floor because he made a comment I felt was out of line. I handled issues on the spot. In the story it's clear ahead of time that his wife wasn't being honest with him. Statements she made would force me to call my lawyer in front of her and draw up papers ready to go when we returned in case of a problem. If that was a problem she can go alone. And if she goes alone she can't come back.
Just a game of dupes in which we know what is going to happen! Our writer has nothing left of the hero of his novels! A man who does not protect and guard his territory deserves no respect.

Not a viable option when married
